Pwalsh,

A noob should never touch thet ALDA.

Take off the inline filter. Blow thru it from the inlet end. If fuel squirts out, its OK and doesn't need to be replaced. If not replace it and try a test drive.

If U still don't have power, take off the rubber fuel line from the fuel tank where it connects to the steel line. If fuel runs out in a steady stream, the tank strainer is OK. If not, the strainer is plugged ( probably by fungus in the fuel) and needs to be cleaned.

If neither of the above tests show a plugged filter or strainer, replace the secondary fuel filter. Try another test drive. Should be OK by now. If not report back.
